My friend opened up a bottle of a blueberry orchard breezin kit. Let it sit on her tabled opened for about 5 minutes and them just set the cork back in about 1/8". It then popped out of the bottle, hit her ceiling, and the wine started running out of the bottle. Any ideas how this may have...

Has anyone ever used this? I am debating on buying this or the buon vino filler machine. Need your advise please!

I was told that if I store my wine standing up that I should use synthetic corks vs regular corks. Is there a reason that you can stand your bottles up using agglomorate corks???

So then if I put in only 1/2 at the beginning and 1/2 at the end it will still be semi sweet? And what do you think the potential alcohol level will be?

I want to up the alchohol on these kits. What would happen if I added the whole Fpak at the beginning vs 1/2 beginning and 1/2 at the end???

I want to make some non alcoholic wine for a baby shower I am hosting. Anyone know how to do this from kit wine?

I order on line at papermart.com

I bottled a MM Vinifera Noble kit in November and now it looks like there is some haze in the bottles. Can I empty these into a carboy and let it sit longer before bottling again? Will I need to add more Kmeta? I also just added some Kmeta to a wine I was about to bottle last night and now it...

I am using the V-Vessell on this so there is no transferring needed. I just take off the collection capsule and disgard the sediments. I will take another reading when I get home. I don't think I have any sorbate at home, but I may have another kit with some in until I put in another order...

How do you know if it is re fermenting? And how to you fix the problem? Will degassing again affect the clearing agents that were already added?

I just looked at my spreadsheet and I did addthe metabisulphite and sorbate before adding clearing agents. So now what???

I believe I added those in step 2 of the instructions.

Ok- so I started the Black rasp. merlot on 8/1 and added 7 cups of sugar to make a simple syrup. Everything was going great. Starting SG was 1.08 and temp at 70 degrees. On 8/12 I hit .996 and went on to the next steps to degass and add fpak and clairfying agents. SG was now 1.01. so now I'm...

Tepe, I am from the LaCrosse, WI area.

Sounds great. I will let you know when I get started and I am sure I will have more questions since this is my 1st home made batch of wine.

so 37 lbs of strawberries for this??

I just purchased 50# of cleaned and de-stemmed frozen strawberries today and would like to make a 6 gallon batch of wine. Does anyone have a good recipe with complete instructions?

This is great information. thanks for all your help.

Thanks for the info. I was thinking I could save some money by going to a local store to buy a kit, however, they only carry wine expert. Shipping is quite a bit when I have to order Mosti kits. OH well..I guess I have to just pay the piper for the better kits.

How does this compare to the Mosti Vinifera Noble? I want to start a good red wine and I've had the VN Castel del papa. I'd like something comparable in a WineExpert.
